There was a meteor shower on Thursday night, so I sat on the metal bench to watch a few shooting stars go by.
Last night, Aurora told me she saw a moth and she was obsessed with it! That seems a bit odd, but who am I to judge? I caught a precious moth for her, and she rewarded me with a chevron shirt.
The July Bug-Off was held today, and I spotted a Raja Brooke butterfly not long after starting up the game. I caught it and took it over to Nat (the Bug-Off judge), and he loved it. He gave it a score of 71 points, which put me in first place. He also gave me an antique clock.
Many of my villagers were also participating in the Bug-Off, and cute little Molly wondered aloud where her little buggy friends were.
Agent S was also enjoying the spirit of competition.
When I saw a fast dragonfly, I chased it down and caught it without too much trouble. It was a banded dragonfly! These things used to be so hard to catch in the older games!
I took it over to Nat, and it scored 91 points. That beat my own record, but it also qualified me for a buggy piece of furniture: a honeybee chest. When I took it home to get a good look at it, I was surprised it was so angular.
Believe it or not, I actually caught another banded dragonfly. But I didn’t give this one to Nat; I sold it instead.
Claudia was indoors, apparently hiding because she was having a bad hair day.
After 6:00, I entered Nat’s tent for the Bug-Off winners’ ceremony. Molly won third prize with a 41-point mantis, Rolf won 2nd with a 62-point walking stick, and my banded dragonfly won the competition. Nat gave me my trophy to celebrate the win.
After banging the day’s money rock, I had enough money to kick my bank account balance up to 114 million bells.
My recent dream visitors have been Tori from Milkyway, Jessica from Sunville, Ben from Yardley, and Jaime from Waldron. Thanks for stopping by, and have a great day!
